Subtext lesson 3/21 writing

In America we celebrate traditions like Memorial Day and Veterans Day, which used to be Armistice Day. You are going to learn about the wonderful traditions and celebrations in the next few paragraphs. I hope you learn a lot
Many people celebrate traditions too. Memorial Day is held towards the summer. We celebrate it because many brave people have served in the army, marines, etc. and this helps people remember them. Putting flowers on their grave on this day is one way people can show love to lost and a lot of proud in them my family and friends celebrate and respect this tradition. My grandparents took me to the Arlington national cemetery. Last summer it really helped me understand the soldiers bravery. My big brother got to start the pledge of allegiance there. America celebrates in many different ways but that was just a few ways.

Veterans Day is held to honor our soldiers for being brave and risking their lives for our country. We need to respect them a whole lot. This day/weekend can be very sad or very exciting. It can be sad because people think about family dying. It can also be very exciting because family sometimes can come home. People celebrate this tradition by doing many fun things. Here are a few. At school people come and speak to us about how important it is. We do fun worksheets and stuff to help us remember. People have many traditions in America.

Many Americans honor these traditions in many ways. You can honor it by putting flowers on the graves of lost soldiers this helps us remember them even though they're gone. People can go to the Arlington national cemetery to see the unknown soldier. Americans can also celebrate family coming back home from war. Some people have parties for them. Others have small get-togethers. My family goes to the parade. Even though there are many ways to celebrate we all have great traditions.

Now you know some ways American citizens celebrate different traditions. Those are some wonderful celebrations in America. I hope you learned some stuff.
